In today’s musical climate there is certainly no shortage of incredible producers. It seems every week there’s another artist on SoundCloud wowing us. There’s also more noise and mediocrity than ever. With repost channels and networks taking over, music discovery isn’t quite as easy as it once was. Not to worry, your friends at FUXWITHIT have opted to make it…

Electric Island was quite an adventure in itself this summer. Due to season-long flooding on the island, the Victoria Day celebration took place at Woodbine Park, and the Canada Day/Civic Holiday festivities found a home at the Portlands; regardless of location, each event still pulled off the perfect “escape from the city” feel that we’ve all come to know and…

College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation. By the time Kanye was getting ready to drop his third album he was teetering on the verge of super stardom. Better yet, he was about to solidify himself as a hip-hop icon. Going head to head with 50 Cent’s ‘Curtis’, Kanye was about to bring home a W for what people were calling “the…

Brasstracks can do no wrong. After dropping a slew of stellar remixes (‘XO TOUR Llif3,’ ‘All Of The Lights’) earlier this year, they’ve opted to move into unleashing originals. ‘Fever’ and ‘Favorite’ are both home runs and with the release of ‘Those Who Know’ they complete the Trifecta. The first listen will have you wondering, “damn, who’s that vocalist and…

Summer is pretty much over but you know we’ve still got that heat. It’s Friday, so we’re coming through the 186th installment of our weekly. This week we kick things off with the infectious and ridiculously fun Lil Uzi Vert flip from Less Is Moore. From there we delve into some bangers from Yvng Jalepeno x Ian Munro, LUUDE, Lunice,…

For those sick of over auto-tuned, substance-less fast food raps, Oddisee is your medicine. His music is a home cooked meal; it may take a little longer to get into and digest but the reward is well worth it. His latest serving is ‘Never Lived,’ an introspective record that’s rich with wisdom and wordplay. The beat is smooth and understated…

Vancouver-based multi-instrumentalist Apollo (previously known as Kalibo) delivers an out-of-this-world album that’ll take you on a trip into the unknown and beyond – Skydive is the perfect harmony between an ethereal transcendence into the heavens, and an intergalactic journey through the cosmos. An album, particularly a debut album, is a rather grandiose way to start off a new moniker, and…

What happens when you get Barely Alive, Virtual Riot, 12th Planet, Funtcase, Cookie Monsta, Dubloadz, BadKlaat, Dillon Francis (plus a whole load more to boot) in the same place? Well not only would that be an awesome party, it would also be the producers behind the latest release from none other than Excision. Returning after once again dominating the bass…
